Professionally packed for fragile shipment. Ships next business day. Full refund if damaged in transit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe mold number stamped on the base of a Ball Perfect Mason is one of the primary collecting markers in this category, and Mold No. 9 is among the more sought-after numbers. Ball produced its jars using numbered molds across multiple glasshouses, and certain mold numbers appear with noticeably lower frequency in the surviving record — No. 9 is one of them. The combination of a documented scarce mold number, the aqua glass color, and an original lid in place makes this a more complete and desirable example than a lidless jar of the same variant.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe milk glass zinc lid is the original period closure — the white opaque glass insert sits inside the zinc band and was designed to prevent the zinc from contacting preserved food. This lid shows appropriate age patina consistent with the jar. Glass body is free of chips or cracks. Embossing is sharp.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ball\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eModel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Perfect Mason\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMold number:\u003c\/strong\u003e No. 9\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e Quart\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Aqua blue\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLid:\u003c\/strong\u003e Original milk glass zinc lid included\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEra:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1920s\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e No chips or cracks; original lid intact with age patina\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMore from our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/mason-canning-jars\"\u003eantique mason jar collection\u003c\/a\u003e: the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/vintage-rare-13-ball-perfect-mason-jar-aqua-quart-w-original-zinc-lid-antique-19\"\u003eBall Perfect Mason Mold No. 13\u003c\/a\u003e, the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/antique-rare-1915-kerr-self-sealing-mason-jar-w-original-zinc-lid-milk-glass-lin\"\u003e1915 Kerr Self Sealing Oklahoma jar\u003c\/a\u003e, and the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/rare-early-ball-antique-blue-perfect-mason-1-quart-w-lid-deep-embossed-letters\"\u003eBall Perfect Mason offset script variant\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"LintHead Restorations","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51621977194786,"sku":"LHR-JAR-008","price":145.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0999\/6920\/4514\/files\/a3674d27-13df-481e-80e9-538866f4d29f.jpg?v=1778377792","url":"https:\/\/lintheadrestorations.com\/products\/rare-antique-blue-ball-perfect-mason-jar-blue-w-milk-glass-zinc-lid-1920-s-9","provider":"LintHead Restorations","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
